Gathered to watch the debate are couple hundred people, a few of whom have been selected by the HLN to ask the candidates questions via a satellite link. A CNN truck sits outside, ready to beam the questions—and occasional shots of the enthusiastic yet well-behaved crowd—to Jacksonville, and, subsequently, to the world.
The audience is seated facing two huge screens, which show the CNN feed. The debate begins, and Wolf Blitzer, speaking to the camera, kicks things off: "Tonight! The final face-off before Florida voters choose!" Wolf sends it off to us, and we show up on the screen. Huge cheer from the crowd, which soon thereafter rises for a national anthem that, due to momentary technical difficulties, nobody can hear.
About twenty minutes into the debate, which begins with an extended exchange on illegal immigration and Mitt Romney's odd non-solution of "self-deportation," Wolf throws it to Miami and CNN Espanol correspondent Juan Carlos Lopez, who introduces Raquel Rodriguez, the first remote questioner. Her question concerns what America can or should do to engage Latin America and promote democracy. The response goes something like this:
Ron Paul: I think we'd be a lot better off trading with Cuba.
HLN crowd: "Boooo!"
Paul: "I think it's time we had friendship and free trade with Cuba."
Crowd: "Boooooo!"
CNN didn't cut back to Rodriguez for a reaction shot, but if they had, they would've shown her being angry at Ron Paul. (Sitting in this crowd, you can understand why Paul has essentially chosen to skip Florida and focus his campaigning on other states.)
During the commercial break, some awkward networking occurs between two young media types sitting near me. The talk turns to the trail.
"How was the Univision forum?" one asks.
"Kinda pointless. They had us in the filing center, watching it on TV." (This is true, though I seem to remember this guy enthusiastically enjoying the free sandwiches and soda.) "Then we went to the Freedom Tower thing"—an event hosted by a Cuban American PAC that wasn't much better, though it did at least produce this.
The second guy continues, "That's the thing about anything on the campaign trail… it's of questionable value. But it's fun! I'm in Miami."
Almost an hour later, Blitzer returns to Miami for another question, from Korn, HLN's executive director. She asks the candidates which Hispanic leaders they would consider as cabinet officials. Santorum knows an easy applause line when he sees it: "Your senator Marco Rubio is a pretty impressive guy," he says, eliciting tremendous cheers. (These people love Marco Rubio. All you have to do is say his name and the crowd goes crazy.) Gingrich and Romney follow suit, naming various people whom they might appoint to their phantom cabinets; Ron Paul, as is his custom, refuses to take the bait: "I don't have any particular names… my litmus test is Hispanics or other individuals who understand monetary policy."
The last remote question comes from Elizabeth Cuevas-Neunder, CEO of the Puerto Rican Chamber of Commerce, dressed in a bright red suit and wearing a small Puerto Rican flag. She asks about the prospects of Puerto Rican statehood, and what the candidates might do to encourage trade between ports in Florida and Puerto Rico.
Santorum gives his answer, and he's the only one to answer, and he really only answers the part about potential statehood. (It should be up to the Puerto Rican people, and also, Santorum is good friends with Puerto Rico governor Luis Fortuno.) Cuevas-Neunder walks away angry, and vocal about it. "He didn't answer my question. He didn't answer my question," she insists.

August 13, 2010
Dear Diary,
"Wait—she let you hug her?!" Jacob blurted vehemently, practically spraying milk all over the kitchen counter. I had just told him everything that happened the night before regarding the Nadia incident. Apparently telling him at breakfast wasn't the best time as he was overcome with pure shock at Leah's defeat.
"Well . . . yeah," I answered. Jacob just shook his head in astonishment as if seeing God for the first time.
"Listen, honey, there's nothing Nadia, or anyone can do to woo me," he said, clasping my hand to his heart.
"See that, my heart only beats for you. I only live because of you, I live for you, babe."
I shuddered at his words. But it wasn't because of fear, it was from the warmth of his warm body, his muscle. My mind went blank as his vivid eyes took place, searching deep into mine. His lips smothered mine with his familiar inviting and sweet taste. His lips soon moved, now grazing my neck. Hmmm, maybe having Nadia here last night wasn't so bad after all, I mean it brought me and Jake closer, literally.
I now wrapped my legs around his waist as his lips found their way back to mine. I still wasn't used to the romantic aspect of my relationship with Jake. Sure, we'd been a sealed deal for over a month now, but I usually tended to get carried away when I was with him. I was like a different person than I was before I knew I was his imprint. I was his best friend, and had been since after birth.
Instead of a smile, it was now a kiss. It wasn't a bear hug, it was a cuddle. I even noticed that the occasion dinner I cooked for Jake transitioned into almost everyday. I was truly taking on my role as his imprintee, his soul mate. I loved him very much, and I was ready to take our relationship to the next level.
Pulling his shirt off wasn't the issue; getting him to agree to cooperate was the problem.
"Ness, we can't. You know that," he added with a genuine, but serious smile.
"Why not? We both want to, and there's no laws against it—"
"Except God's law," he interrupted, blowing my bluff.
"Aw, come on Jakey. Please. It's all I want. You don't have to give me a birthday or a Christmas present! I promise," I said softly, tracing my fingers over the planes of his chest. I had to give in because my frustration was bombing the perfect moment we had.
He just sighed and began wiping down the milk infested table with Windex.
"I promise, after marriage," he answered as though he were in pain. This time I was the one to sigh. Marriage wouldn't be until at least another year, which basically spells out "forever."
Then it hit me: Isle Esme. It was still summer and my family didn't take a vacation yet. It was perfect. I'd just invite Jake to tag along. Even better I'd invite my extended family. Isle Esme was a titanic island that could accommodate many visitors and knowing my father, he could have an extra house arranged if necessary. Now all I needed to do was inquire my parents and convince the Cullens to allow the wolf pack and their imprints to come along. Although as usual, Claire is the only one to miss out.
It was such a shame Claire was an average human. Right now Claire was eleven and ready to begin sixth grade. It was a beautiful thing to see Quil's face light up and his spirit and faith risen each year as Claire became one year older. And with each year Claire matured mentally and physically. I had hoped Claire would soon be my friend, given that she is the imprint that is within my age group.
"I have to go patrol, Ness," Jacob uttered, obviously irritated as he always was to leave me. He did his ritual kiss on the forehead and then departed.
I sighed at his absence. It seems I never see him these days with the extra patrolling he's been doing. Jacob mentioned something about a nomad passing through and he needed to protect me. As was with the case of the rest of the pack and their imprints. Sam and Jared were just as concerned about Emily and Kim as Jacob was about me. And Quil was always worried for Claire with her being all the way across the country. It wouldn't be long before Paul, Embry, Seth, and Leah found their soul mates.
I soaked in the alluring scent of my mother's Dolce and Gabbana perfume, courtesy of Alice. I missed and loved everything about her. I couldn't ask for a better mother. She was as gorgeous as any model, but with a warm heart.
She loved me more than her own life, and I loved her just as much. She proved that with my birth. I never meant to kill my mother while in the womb, and I expressed that through my thoughts. Of course I loved her for giving me life, giving me something no one else could. Sure I already owned three cars; a Volvo, BMW, and my father's ex-Aston Martin Vanquish (all of which I still cannot drive). I possessed all of the latest fashion designs of various popular designers. Alice made sure I didn't wear one item of clothing more than once. And when I called for motherly assistance when my mother was not present, I had Aunt Rosalie to comfort me. I had everything. But the highlight gift if my entire lifetime would always be the gift of life my mother gave to me.
"Hey, Mom . . . don't you think a vacation would sound nice? It's still summer." My mom developed a perplexed expression. I just presented my crooked smile, a sly trick to convince her. I figured out that if I played that smile, she usually gave in.
"Vacation where?" She pursed her lips, trying to conceal her strength. Of course she wanted to give in, especially to that smile. How could she say no? My mom just didn't fathom the idea of spending money on something that she considered not essential. It was "extraneous."
"Well, I had this . . . idea that we enjoy the rest of summer vacation on Isle Esme." Okay, now thinking about it, my mom probably wouldn't want to revisit Isle Esme. Not after—well where she conceived me.
"Hmmm, that's a great idea," she said with unexpected enthusiasm. Great? I mean it was, but why is my mom agreeing to this? This is the exact opposite response I thought I'd get from her. I have to admit my curiosity for Isle Esme has something to do with it.
"We can spend more family time together. Let me just ask your father and Esme." She made it sound so simple. The Cullens rarely took vacations, let alone at Isle Esme.
As I waited patiently on the couch, Rosalie popped in the living room. She was styling the latest pink Juicy Couture tracksuit. How did she look so elegant in everything?
"So you want a vacation….to Isle Esme?" She questioned, keeping her pupils frozen to the flatscreen TV, highly aware of her surroundings.
"Yes, I think it's a marvelous idea. It serves the perfect opportunity to spend time with family," I responded. Rosalie now relaxed into the sofa with everything seeming at ease except for scent. I knew what unpleasant aroma she smelt when she wrinkled her nose in disgust. It was Jacob's scent she picked up, or the "mutt's reek" as she called it.
"Why Isle Esme, if you don't mind me asking?" Rosalie pondered, now focusing her attention on me.
"Well I've always wanted to venture out somewhere where it's not a frigid climate," I answered confidently. Of course the climate around Rio de Janeiro wouldn't be freezing. It would be the complete opposite with sunny, blue skies and fresh yellow sand on the beaches. The water would be a clear blue, that any eye would adore. And maybe this would be the suitable place to see Jacob shed more clothes and reveal more skin?
"Ahem," my father croaked in reaction to my impure thought.
"Sorry, Dad." I apologized mindful of his ability to read one's thoughts. I always forget and I do wish I could blame it on him for snooping through my thoughts, but he can't help it. I know my father tries to ignore everyone's thoughts to respect their privacy, but that doesn't change the fact that he reads them.
Wait my dad was here? Didn't he leave just yesterday to go hunting with Uncle Jasper and Emmett and Grandpa Carlisle?
"It was merely a brief hunt," he answered my question, feeding my curiosity.
I nodded in contentment as my mom stormed through the living room definitly out of chracter. She was bubbly. What had gotten int0 her?
She notably kissed my father.
"Edward you're back so soon," mom said, her golden eyes lighting up, making her face somehow more beautiful. And she retreated to kissing him. I really did believe that at that particular moment I was going to die of nausea along with Rosalie's chuckles to my repulsion if my parents kept it up. Just because I didn't appear as an infant didn't mean I should be shown my parents….er..display of love.
"Sorry, Nessie," my mom said, pulling away sheepishly, scratching the contours of her neck.
"All right now everyone gather around the living room, please." It only took a swift three seconds for the entire Cullen family to make their appearance.
"Esme, would you like to do the honors?" Mom offered. After all, it was Esme's island that we'd be vacationing at.
I could barely stay stable as I brewed with sheer excitement and joy at the imminent future retreat to Isle Esme.
"Sure, dear. Well with Renesmee's input Bella and I decided it was important that we spend time together as a family. We have a new family joining us, the wolf pack and their mates. I think it's only fair we get to know each other through a relaxing week long adventure at Melody Key." No one but me seemed to have been surprised at the invitation. Melody Key? Where was that? What was that? Was that another private island the Cullens owned?
My father chuckled at my confusion as he always does. But who could blame me? How many residences did the Cullens own, exactly?
"Melody Key is a private island Carlisle purchased a long time ago. It's much grander and more gigantic in size compared to Isle Esme. It's a remote island off the coast of the British Virgin Islands."
As I drained the spaghetti for the pack's "meatball marinara supper" I abided my regards to the spectacular smell of the red roses on the dining table. Emily was showering now, but she mentioned Sam buying her flowers a day ago.
I had this physco notion that the roses were from Nadia to Jacob, though I only knew that was my vast and silly imagination. Nadia was to never be heard of again. Not out loud, nor in my thoughts.
"Smells yummy, Nessie."
"Yeah, spectacular."
"Score one for 'The Ness," piped various pack members as they strolled through the living room to the kitchen, lured in with meatball bait.
I half grinned, serving the pack with what I anticipated was enough food. I had been preparing the dinner since noon and made sure to shape the meatballs the size of tennis balls.
"Thanks, babe, it's delectable, and so are you." Jacob nibbled my ear before even reaching his dinner plate. I still couldn't get over the name "babe." He'd always called me "honey" before. Maybe he was just cheering me up for Nadia's doing?
As everyone began chowing down on their pasta, I felt it was time to invite them to no other than an island called Melody Key.
Sorry but I'll have to tell you about this later because Paul and Jacob are already fighting over meatballs…ugh…men.
Yours Truly,
-Nessie Cullen

Airlines Worry Smaller Jets May Transform Flying
Taking off for the first time this year will be small, speedy, cheap jets that big airlines worry will cause traffic jams around major metropolitan areas.
Others dismiss VLJs as so much pie in the sky.
NASA, which has been promoting VLJ technology, asked the National Research Council to report in 2002 on the feasibility of the concept. A committee of retired aviation industry executives and academics gave it the thumbs-down.
"The committee does not share NASA's vision," the report said, noting that aircraft could never be affordable for large numbers of people and businesses. It further concluded that they wouldn't attract passengers if they didn't serve big cities, and they couldn't use small airports that don't have navigation aids, control towers and radar. Noise would keep them away from small airports that did have such equipment, the report said.
Walker predicted the jets will appeal to wealthy businessmen eager to avoid the unpleasant and time-consuming experience of getting to an airplane at a busy airport. "It's uber-first class," he said.
Raburn differed from that characterization. "It's uber-convenience," he said.

Recycling Batteries Responsibly
The European Directive on Batteries and Accumulators aims to minimise the impact of batteries on the environment and encourage the recovery of the materials they contain. In the UK, regulations on the recycling of batteries and accumulators (rechargeable batteries) were Introduced in 2009. The Waste Batteries Regulations aim to significantly increase UK collection and recycling of used portable batteries from 3% in 2007 to 25% by 2012, rising to at least 45% in 2016.
The battery symbol on a product or on its packaging indicates that the product must not be disposed of with general household waste. Instead, it is the consumer's responsibility to dispose of their waste batteries at a designated collection point so that they can be recycled. The separate collection and recycling of batteries at the time of dispo sal will help to conserve natural resources and ensure that they are recycled in a manner that protects human health and the environment. A comprehensive list of battery recycling centres can be obtained from: www.recycle-more.co.uk
All Samsung products that are subject to the Batteries Directive are compliant with the UK battery and accumulator Requirements. In accordance with national law, SAMSUNG Electronics (UK) Ltd is a member of an approved batteries producer compliance scheme. This scheme collects, treats and disposes of batteries on Samsung's behalf.

As above. Meets expectations. Only complaint is that the red LED constantly flashes when a toner is below a certain percentage, but given the size of the toners we can still have a week's use left with it still flashing away.
Otherwise, it's fast, good quality and is efficient with its ink.Show more +

Tips for roasting chestnuts over an open fire.
Chestnuts are traditionally roasted over an open fire in the fireplace. The husk of the chestnut must be pierced before roasting to prevent the nut from exploding. A special pan with holes in the bottom is used to contain the nuts over the fire. Roasting is done over a hot fire in a few minutes.

It is always a troublesome job to remember the birth day of your pals and family and wish them on time. At least, for me, it was. google calendar is what I use for keeping track of events and get alerts on my cell phone so that I wont miss any. I have always searched to find a way I can get alerts of birthdays to cell phone by integrating orkut birthdays with g-calendar, followed up the same request with google communities, but never found a way to get this done.
Finally google has come up with a solution to this, you can see a link
"view your friends' birthdays in Google Calendar"
Just below the 'upcoming birthday' section in your prifile page. This takes you to the google calender and it'll have all the orkut birthdays marked in the calender. Now the most important part – getting alerts of google calander events in your cell phone. go to http://www.google.com/calendar >> login using your gmail username/password >> go to settings >> mobile setups. Start by selecting your country and then enter your phone number and carrier. A verification code would be sent to your mobile prior to activating this facility. Finally enter the verification code sent to your phone. They says there can be charges for incoming message ( google doesnt charge you for this service), but I've been using this without spending a single buck over a vodafone India connection. Cheers.
Edit: Looks like this is no more a service provided by google, but hopefully will resume someday

The S&P 500 could take a swing at 1500 in the near future if earnings news doesn't trip it up.
Stocks lept ahead Thursday, fueled by much better housing and jobless claims data after several days of sideways trading.
Traders looked past a weak Philadelphia Fed number and instead focused on the surprising 12 percent jump in housing starts and the lowest weekly jobless claims number since January, 2008.
Disappointing earnings news from Citigroup and Bank of America was also ignored. But that may not be the case Friday when General Electric, Morgan Stanley, Schlumberger, State Street, SunTrust Banks, McMoran Exploration, Parker Hannifin, Johnson Controls and Rockwell Collins report.
"We're at a new (S&P) high for the recovery. If it gets near 1500, there's also going to be something else in the background. You're having people process it, and look at their portfolios and wonder if they have enough in stocks," said Jim Paulsen, chief investment strategist at Wells Capital Management.
The S&P 500 rose 8 to a new five-year high of 1480, and the Dow was up 84, at 13,596, just short of a five-year high. The Nasdaq rose 18 to 2126.
The consumer discretionary and industrial sectors led the market higher. Whether it continues to rise Friday could depend on overnight data from China and Friday's earnings reports.
"It will probably depend on what comments we get from some of these big players coming up," said Paulsen.
Paulsen said the tone of CEOs when they discuss their outlook could be what determines whether the market continues higher, driving the S&P to the psychological 1500 mark.
"I don't think it will take a lot now unless there's some big time disappointment that sets in," he said. "It might just go up to 1500 and test it and see how the market takes it."
General Electric could be important Friday, since its businesses span multiple industries and the world. GE is a minority owner of NBC Universal, the parent of CNBC.
"Is there any other stock that's represents global GDP like GE?" said Paulsen. GE is expected to earn $0.43 per share for the fourth quarter on revenues of $38.7 billion.
"It's attached to so many different verticals in the S&P 500," said Art Hogan of Lazard Capital Partners. "When you have a General Electric, that's a pretty good window into what the rest of the S&P is doing in terms of supply and demand."
Hogan agreed the market could keep moving higher for now.
"I think it's a replacement rally," he said, pointing to money returning into the momentum stocks that were sold at the end of the year. "I think we continue to have legs to this rally. Part of this is the rotation out of bonds into stocks, which is manifesting itself this year finally. We're working on the assumption that February will bring us some good resolve out of Washington."
Hogan's assumption is that Congress gets past the debt ceiling battle and budget wrangling without derailing the economy or markets. He said the fact investors are able to consider both economic news and earnings is a healthy trend.
What Else to Watch
There is consumer sentiment data at 9:55 a.m. ET.
Chinese GDP and other data is released overnight.
"The economy is more or less back on track," said Helen Zhu, Goldman Sachs chief China equity strategist on "Squawk on the Street."
"We do think this year there's likely to be more proactive fiscal policies to come, but most of those announcements are likely to come in March." For the year, she expects GDP growth of 7.7 percent and the fourth quarter number should be slightly under 8 percent, up from 7.4 percent in the third quarter.

Missing MURPHY"S in Tenn. – MOVED TO CHATTANOOGA TN. OVER THREE YEARS AGO...HAVEN'T FOUND A PLACE THAT COMES CLOSE...ONLY GET ID'D IN PLACES THAT HAVE COVER CHARGES... I MISS THE PRICES, 6 $ A SHOT(MEASURED) FOR CUERVO HERE SUCKS...BARS HEAR ONLY HAVE POOL OR DARTS AND I HAVEN'T SEEN A FOOSBALL TABLE SINCE MURPHY'S.
Murphy's Pub Review – With 2 bars, a covered patio, and multiple games, Murphy's is a great place to grab a drink. There are multiple flatscreen TVs, 2 pool tables, a foosball table, and multiple dart boards. There is always free popcorn, and free hot dogs during Reds games.
pathetic death trap – this place is sad sad sad. They cater to a group of aout three regulars and don't care about the remainder of the business. tend to fire any employee's of actual worth. And have an elitist attitude that tends to make one wish for . . . well . . . people of worth. If you are looking for fun enjoyment, or decent people, look somewhere else
Cheers! – Best corner bar atmosphere in Cincinnati! Good service, great prices.
Best local Irish joint in Cincinnati – Murphy's is where you go to for a close knit community drinking experience. It's also where fights erupt and guns get shot but hey its the Nati and every place is like that.
In short its as safe as any pub and its as friendly as the place its located in. If you can love the area you can fit right in at Murphy's. They have Killians on tap at the front bar, yet the rear bar is usually less crowded so go there for shots or mixed drinks. Also do not start a tab, it's likely you'll spend way to much money... at least I do.
Horrible service, avoid at all costs! – I had always heard okay things about Murhpy's Pub & finally decided to try it out one night. Immediately upon arriving, I was ID'd (completely normal) and then given A LOT of disrespect, which I was not used to. The bouncer had WAY too much attitude (even given his job title) & once I was free to get a drink, the service was horrible. I had bartenders pass me by numerous times without so much as a glance. At least in other bars I get a "I'll be right with you" or another reassuring remark. After waiting MORE than 10 minutes, I gave my order for a Bud Light bottle (not too demanding) and proceeded to wait ANOTHER 8 minutes (yes, I counted) before getting my drink. When I FINALLY got my drink, it was so warm that I almost poured it onto the floor of the bar. I made a comment to the bartender (after waiting 5 minutes to get his attention) and his answer was something to the extent of "If you keep complaining I'll find plenty of other people that are willing to pay for any beer at all." At this point, my friends & I had realized that Murphy's was definitely NOT worth the effort or the wait so we decided to leave. Now I know people might think that uptown Cincinnati (or Clifton) is fairly safe, but I can say that without a doubt that I felt VERY uncomfortable after seeing THREE cop cars surrounding 2 men (1 of which was holding a gun) and later finding out that the 2 men were convicted for violating major laws relating to the trafficking of illegal substances.
After this incident it should be clear to EVERYONE that Murphy's is not only a lame place to hang out, it is also in an extremely dangerous location.
if you like blah places, that are totally cramped, and leave you nothing better to do than stand up and drink with whoever you came in with (since it's *impossible* to meet anybody) then come on in
Go here! – This is a fun, laid back place. The happy hour is the best with cheap drink prices till 9pm!
Best Overall Clifton Bar – Murphy's is defenately the best bar overall bar in Clifton. You may have other personal 'favorites', but this place can't be much further down the list. The bar is a bit rambling, but that makes for a lot of room. There's 2 pool tables, 4-5 dart boards, a foosball area, golden tee and plenty of seating. It's even got an outdoor area a la Christy's (although not quite as elaborate or nice). While Christy's is generally the place to be in the summer, Murphy's grabs that title the rest of the year (or when it's too damn muggy!). This all weather oasis has good amenities, layout and staff, which makes it my favorite all round.

Annie Leibovitz's Lighting, from the eyes of a Photo Assistant
Assistants, aka "voice activated light stands", can be a wealth of knowledge and experience if you are fortunate enough to have access to one that's been around. It's not entirely unheard of, to meet an assistant that knows their lighting better than the photographer they are working for. If only one of them would create a blog about their behind the scenes exploits… wait a minute. What do we have here?
Melanie Mann is the author of a blog called: Confessions Of A Mad Photo Assistant, the good, the bad, and the ugly. Where she post really insightful articles, detailing the lighting set ups for shoots like the one below. But she doesn't stop there. She also promises to share with us "…the stories no one gets to hear from the view of the lowly photo assistant–from plucking the gray stress hairs off of your boss's wife's head to chatting with John Paul Jones about smoked salmon eggs benedict."
Melanie Mann:
"Tell me these aren't the most stunning rendition of Disney art to date! LOVE! Alright before I start getting carried away and prattle on about how epic I feel these images are, let's examine one…"
"Here is Queen Latifah portrayed as Ursula from the Little Mermaid. Amazingly I stumbled upon some behind the scenes photos of the set from different angles, so I think this diagram is a pretty good representation of the set up."
"The Breakdown:
To camera right, a large octobank shooting through a large diffusion panel toward the Queen. Two large strip banks on either side of the camera, low, illuminating the underside of the tentacles. Two large octobanks, one above and slightly behind the Queen camera left, and the other handheld by an assistant at 45 degree angle to Queen also camera left. Another large octobank is boomed overhead, an umbrella illuminates the background, and a reflector held by an assistant camera right. Quite an impressive set up! Understandably as there are several moving parts and awkwardly twisting tentacles. Overall beautifully soft soft illumination."
"Here's a behind the scenes video you can see the whole thing in action:"
"How fun would it be to climb into that get-up!! And Queen Latifah makes the perfect Ursula! Beautiful lighting, amazing final image."

Rehearsals Begin for Lucas Hnath World Premiere of ISAAC'S EYE,2/9-2/24
Rehearsals begin this week for the world premiere of Isaac's Eye by Lucas Hnath, directed by Linsay Firman. Isaac's Eye, an Ensemble Studio Theatre/Alfred P. Sloan Project for New Plays on Science and Technology presentation, is the tale of an emotionally immature, 25-year-old Isaac Newton, his drive to become a fellow of The Royal Society and the great scientist Robert Hooke who, in Mr. Hnath's play, is the nemesis standing in his way. Iaaac's Eye begins previews Wednesday, January 30, at 7:00pm for an opening on Saturday, February 9, at 7:00p.m at the Ensemble Studio Theatre, 549 West 52nd Street.
Isaac's Eye is brash, irreverent, often comical, and ultimately scrupulous in dissecting fact from fiction in search of what history may have been hiding all these years.
Haskell King plays Newton and Michael Louis Serafin-Wells plays the hot-headed, randy polymath Robert Hooke. Rounding out the cast are Kristen Bush and Jeff Beihl. Mr. King and Ms. Bush, who both appeared in the EST/Sloan Project's 2010 Photograph 51, are being reunited with director Firman who directed the Anna Ziegler play about Rosalind Franklin.
Mr. Hnath's play re-imagines the contentious, plague-ravaged world in which, the young Isaac Newton and the older Robert Hooke are a Mozart and Salieri, a Tesla and an Edison, who wrangle over the physics of white light and its separation by refraction. In the course of their dispute Newton risks blinding himself by conducting optical experiments on his own eyes to prove to Hooke that his theory is right and that he is worthy of admission to The Royal Society.
Far from a costume drama, Isaac's Eye is original in its presentation and contemporary in its tone. Mr. Hnath's play occupies its own time and space as it explores the dreams and longings that drove the rural farm boy Isaac Newton to become one of the greatest thinkers in modern science.
Mr. Hnath's Death Tax was one of the most talked-about productions at last spring's Humana Festival of New American Plays. Many of his other recent plays, both unproduced and produced, also take on contemporary or historical events and people: Unproduced Screenplay about the Death of Walt Disney, Red Speedo, Hillary and Clinton, Sake Tasting with a Séance to Follow, The Courtship of Anna Nicole Smith, Odile's Ordeal, Tonguetied, and Three Attempts at Corrective Eye Surgery. Mr. Hnath (left) has been a resident playwright at New Dramatists since 2011 and has had his plays produced at Actors Theatre of Louisville, University of Miami, The Culture Project, Target Margin and Ontological-Hysteric Theater. In addition to EST, his plays have been developed at Rattlestick Playwrights Theater and Cleveland Public Theatre.
The 32-year-old Mr. Hnath is a two-time winner of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Grant for his feature-length screenplays. Isaac's Eye won the 2012 Whitfield Cook Prize, an annual award given by New Dramatists for an unproduced, unpublished play deemed worthiest by an outside panel of judges
Linsay Firman, Associate Director of the EST/Sloan Project and Literary Manager at EST, directed the 2010 NY premiere of Anna Ziegler's Photograph 51 at the Ensemble Studio Theatre later reprised at World Science Festival. Other NYC productions include Rachel Bond's Anniversary, Garrett M. Brown's Americana and Jose Rivera's Flowers, all in the EST Marathon; Perdita by Pierre Diennet (Lion Theater), Joy Tomasko's Unfold Me, Catherine Trieschmann's Crooked, Heather Lynn MacDonald's Pink (all at Ariel Tepper's Summer Play Festival); Anne Washburn's Apparition (chashama) named one of Time Out New York's ten best plays of 2003, Howard Barker's The Power of the Dog and The Possibilities, Joe Orton's Loot, and Peter Rose's Snatch (Soho Rep). She began working in new play development as the Associate Director of Soho Rep, where she worked from 1998 - 2004.

The just-drinks Interview - Isaac Sheps, CEO of Carlsberg's Baltika
Earlier this year, just-drinks' managing editor, Olly Wehring, travelled to Russia with Carlsberg to learn about the brewer's plans for its Baltika division in the country. The unit, which produces the namesake range of beers, is the clear market-leader, but has had to struggle of late as the legislative environment has grown more hostile to alcoholic drinks. Having assumed the leadership of Baltika late last year, Isaac Sheps talked to just-drinks about what he found when he made the move, what he's battling against today, and what he wants in the future.

Selected Poems
John Dryden - Author
In his lifetime, John Dryden gained fame at the cost first of gossip and scandal and then of suspicion and scorn. He wrote to order, currying favor with the Crown and repeatedly savaging its enemies. Yet the finest works of his political and spiritual imagination- "Absalom and Achitophel" and "The Hind and the Panther"-develop the themes of envy, ambition, and misdeed in ways that far transcend their era. During the Glorious Revolution, Dryden fell from patronage and favor: he then transformed himself into perhaps the greatest of English translators, a superb interpreter of Virgil and Horace, Juvenal and Persius, Boccaccio and Chaucer.
With a preface and annotations accompanying each poem, modernized spelling and punctuation, and an informative introduction and chronology, this Penguin Classics edition is the only paperback volume of its kind available.

Albemarle County Police say, the victim of the fatal crash on Scottsville Road has been identified.
The Medical Examiner in Richmond identified the victim as 59 year old Gary Meeks from Scottsville.
The Medical Examiner determined the cause of death as blunt force trauma, and that Meeks was not wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash.
This is the first fatal crash in Albemarle County in 2013. In 2012, the county saw a total of 12 deadly crashes.
March 27, 2013
Albemarle County Police say a man has been killed in a crash on Route 20.
The accident happened at about 6:20 p.m. a couple miles south of Charlottesville, near the intersection of Route 20 and Red Hill Road.
Police say the driver of a truck swerved off the road and hit a tree, then the truck caught fire.
The driver died at the scene. Police are still working to identify of the driver. They are sending the body to Richmond for an autopsy.
Police reopened Route 20 at about 10 p.m.
They did accident reconstruction at the scene for several hours.
Police say they are not sure what caused the crash. They were not yet able to determine if speed or alcohol were factors, or if the driver had a medical problem. They are hoping to get those answers from the autopsy.

I thought this included "two" tables...thus..."bunch"; however, price is for one. When shipment came, it was missing some screws which we had to go and purchase. Finished product is very nice; however, I believe overpriced for the "one" table.....
I had an oak coffee table that was taking up way too much space in my small family area of my kitchen/family room. I wanted something one could set drinks on withouth taking up so much space. It also shows off my Oriental rug underneath much better and visually opened up the room. 2 of these were an ideal solution. One thing that's a negative -- one of the photos shows these "bunched" as one solid table. My two tables when pulled together still leave a small gap -- its a minor issue, since I'll probably keep them spaced apart anyway. Easy to assemble though for some odd reason the directions call for using a Phillips screwdriver and you use a hex wrench to tighten screws. Don't tighten everything until you have the tables fully assembled -- this way you can do the fine adjusting to the legs to make certain everything is even. Some people commented that they don't care for the brushed sliver distressing. I actually do like it. I'd rather have the distressed look than solid black. For this price, I'm not certain you could buy the two pieces of tempered glass alone. A good value.
Being a Socal Interior decorater and Event designer, I have now purchased 8 of these tables for clients and myself. Doubled up, the table is a simple coffee table, perfect contrast to mellow French and Italian antiques... Metal easy to paint if needed. (painted two antique silver, two gold) I would also use them for a traditional touch to a modern room as well. As always, Overstock is easy to work with, good product and timely delivery.
I purchased two for my living room. They look great side-by-side as a coffee table; they look exactly like the PB version. Very easy assembly. Heavyweight and sturdy.
I recieved only one and did like the look and feel of the table so I ordered another one so I would have two side by side.
These tables are an excellent choice to allow for storage and to keep the area feeling open in a small room. The style goes with any decor and ,especially for the price,they were very sturdy. Like the idea of the lower level shelf.Would have preferred the finish to be a matte black rather than the "distressed silver/black", but a can of spray paint can change that.Over all, good value for the money.
This is a nice small table, and certainly the price is right BUT - a few things. There is only one table per order. I realized this, but only after a read a few reviews. I bought two and they were a little difficult to put together by myself since they need to be pushed into position and screwed simultaneously (metal is not exactly square). With that being said, it still only took about 30 minutes. The thing I would caution people about is the color - it is black, but not solid - it has a silver color showing through, I guess to make it look sort of modern with a rustic edge. The picture makes it look more oil rubbed bronze, i.e. have a brown undertone, but it does NOT. I think I'm going to spray paint mine the color I want, but just beware that the picture is a little misleading.
Like other reviewers have commented, this is a great value and a close replica of the PB Cube Table However, it�s not identical and not of the same quality. We own 2 each of the PB Cube and the Overstock Bunch tables. When placed side to side you definitely notice the difference, and, if price weren�t a factor, you�d choose the PB table. Key differences: * The finish on the metal frame on the PB table is more refined and is tan/bronze in color. The Bunch table has a flat black �scratched� finish that looks rather crude. However, as others have noted, its easily painted * The glass on the PB table is am bit heavier. Also, both glass shelves on the PB table are square and identical in size, while the Bunch table uses a slightly rectangular shape for the lower shelf (the top shelf is square) * The PB metal frame is one piece and welded together, while the Bunch table must be assembled from 6 pieces (4 legs + 2 frames for the glass shelves), The bottom line for us is that the Overstock Bunch table is sturdy, attractive, of decent quality and a heck of a good buy. Its definitely �good enough� for our purposes . Had it been available 8 years ago we certainly would have purchased it instead of the PB Tanner.
Based on the positive reviews for these tables I purchased them for my den. They are nicely made and look more expensive then they were. Assembly was easy and we very pleased with them.
the ad is deceiving . you have to order 2 tables if you are going to use this as a coffee table . it is advertised as a coffee table and should be priced that way too.

The first appearance of the Katzenjammer Kids in animation.
The Katzenjammer Kids debuted on December 12, 1897 in the American Humorist, the Sunday comic supplement of the Hearst-owned New York Journal.
After cartoonist Rudolph Dirks drew the Katzenjammer Kids for about 15 years, he went on a brief hiatus. Other artists took over his strip. Dirks sued, feeling that he owned the rights to the Katzenjammer Kids.
The court let Dirks continue drawing his characters- as long as they weren't called the Katzenjammer Kids! That's why he drew the strip at the rival Pulitzer newspapers under the title "The Captain and the Kids" (the name of the MGM cartoon series) while the Hearst papers ran "The Katzenjammer Kids" with other artists.

ESPN analyst: Falcons not insurmountable foe for Cardinals
The Arizona Cardinals are 4-5.
The Falcons won eight straight before falling in a close battle to the New Orleans Saints last week.
The Cardinals have lost five straight, having been beaten by the St. Louis Rams and Buffalo Bills, among others.
Oh, and Arizona has not won a game in Atlanta since 1993.
Yet, ESPN NFL analyst Ron Jaworski believes that while the Falcons are good, the Cardinals can come out of this game on top.
"They're a very good football team, there is no doubt of that, but they are not an unbeatable football team," the analyst told Arizona Sports 620's Burns and Gambo Thursday.
Jaworski notes how the Falcons have some playmakers on the offensive side of the ball, especially with quarterback Matt Ryan, receivers Roddy White and Julio Jones and tight end Tony Gonzalez.
"But I think if you can match up in a physical-style of game, I still believe they're designed for the finesse game on both sides of the football," he said.
listen Listen: Ron Jaworski, ESPN NFL Analyst
Ron Jaworski is on to talk to Burns and Gambo as we get ready for another big weekend in the NFL. Jaws says that Rex Ryan has lost control of his team. Where did the Jets go wrong, after going to two consecutive AFC championship games? Would Jaws start Tim Tebow over Mark Sanchez at this point? Plus, has the Nick Foles era begun in Philadelphia? And, the Cardinals are playing the Atlanta Falcons this Sunday. Jaws tells us the key for the Cardinals to beat the Falcons.
Jaworski believes the Cardinals could attack the Falcons down the field with tight end Rob Housler. It makes sense, especially since Saints tight end Jimmy Graham torched the team for 146 yards and two touchdowns on seven catches last week.
However, that would mean the Cardinals offense does something it hasn't in nearly two months: be effective.

worst service – i just recently made a purchase and trying to get them to fix my account was a waste of time, i am still getting the run around after almost 2 months of trying to fix it, the manager at the capital plaza is rude and didnt want to help fix anything...this is the last thing i will purchase from conns, i have called the corporate office, and also been in the store 8 times so i will never make another purchase there, they dont know how to even enter your account into the computer...if i could, i would just return this whole purchase all together and get a refund so i can go buy it somewhere else hassle free.
Conn's is a CONN JOB – There were several mistakes made by Conn's with my purchase of a new fridge. Mistakes happen, but when Conn's makes them, they do not fix them. I have gotten the 'run around' for a month trying to fix their mistakes - no one takes ownership, their payment systems have conflicting information, they are rude, hang up on you and do not come through on their promises. This has been the single most horrible service I have ever received - please do not be completely screwed by Conn's - they are truly a CONN JOB!

"I think our guys played hard," Donoho head coach Shannon Felder said. "We prepared well all week long. We knew Cedar Bluff was a good team."
Senior quarterback Chris Carr put on a show against the Tigers' defense. On the first play from scrimmage, Carr ran for 50 yards for the first of his four touchdowns. His other scores came on runs of 5, 84 and 1 yards.
"All of this goes to my lineman," Carr said. "I wouldn't have scored a touchdown tonight or got a single yard without them. They were really on their blocks and we really got this win from working hard in practice."
Carr finished with 279 yards on the ground.
"I'm proud of Chris," said coach Felder. "The guys did a great job of blocking and opening up holes for Chris. I'm proud of all of our guys. It was a total team effort."
Not to be outdone by his quarterback, junior running back Justin Foster finished with 136 yards, including a 56-yard touchdown run.
"We try to rotate some guys in on offense," Felder said, "to try to give Justin a blow so that he'll be able to play every down on defense. Justin had a good game tonight. He didn't have many carries but he took full advantage of the carries that he did have."
Foster and Axis Heathcock each finished with 13 tackles. Sam Garner led the Falcons with 15.
Chris Carr may have scored on the Falcons' first play, but his younger brother Kevin Carr scored on their final play. Kevin ran for a 51-yard touchdown late in the fourth.
Donoho (5-2, 5-1 in Class 1A, Region 6) returns to action on Friday at Spring Garden.
Cedar Bluff (3-4, 3-4) was led by D'Shawn Fife in rushing with 100 yards.
Senior quarterback Dalton Cosby completed 10 of 15 passes for 88 yards.
He threw the only two touchdowns for the Tigers, a 19-yarder to D'shawn Dixon and a 10-yarder to D.J. Chapman.
Cedar Bluff head coach Jonathan McWhorter said he believes his Tigers are a better team than the way they played suggests.
"I don't want to take anything away from Donoho," McWhorter said. "They are much improved from last year. Coach Felder and his group do a great job with those guys."
McWhorter added, "No. 2 (Chris Carr) and No. 25 (Foster) were men among boys tonight. We really didn't have an answer for them."
Cedar Bluff does not have a game scheduled for Week 8.
The Tigers return to action Oct. 25 when they welcome in Spring Garden.

The University of Louisville women's team is off to the third-best start in school history and coach Jeff Walz is doing is despite a rash of injuries.
The Cardinals have four players who have started games in the past and likely would be major contributors on the sidelines with injuries.
Tia Gibbs and Asia Taylor haven't played a game this season because of hip injuries, while Shawnta Dyer tore her ACL in December. Monique Reid has missed five games with a bone bruise in her knee. She is expected back perhaps as early as Sunday when the Cardinals host DePaul at the KFC Yum! Center.
"We have a long way to go, but I am really proud of our group," Walz said. "They have handled a lot of adversity. I am just really impressed how the next person has just stepped up when we've needed them.
"Now we're trying to get all to play good on the same day. I keep telling them, I don't need them all to play great just need them all to play good."
The Cardinals (20-5, 8-3) are fourth in the Big East Conference behind Notre Dame (23-1, 11-0), Connecticut (23-1, 10-1) and Syracuse (21-3, 9-2).
U of L had won six in a row and nine of 10 games before a loss on Monday night at No. 2 Notre Dame. DePaul beat the Cardinals 86-80 on Jan. 5.
"We have come together as a team because we had too," junior Antonita Slaughter said. "We've had a lot of injuries but we have great chemistry."
The return of Reid would be a huge boost for the Cardinals. She's the only player still left from the 2009 NCAA runner-up team and was averaging 10.4 points and 4.1 rebounds a game when she went down.
Taylor has been practicing on a limited basis for a few weeks but her status and the status of former Miss Basketball Gibbs are uncertain.
After struggling for much of the season with turnovers, the Cardinals have cut down on the number of miscues in recent games.
U of L had 20 or more in three of the first five games of the season but haven't had more than 19 (Notre Dame) in nine games – a win against Providence when the Cardinals had 26 turnovers.
"We used to turn it over a lot," Shoni Schimmel said. "For us to narrow that down is great, it helps us get more shots. I think its focus more than anything."
"We are finally paying attention," Walz said. "They're to what we are telling them and that's stop dribbling so much. All we wanted to do was dribble the ball and then force a pass and that's not going to work.
"It's a simple thing, quick ball reversal and less dribbling leads to easier shots. They're finally paying attention to what they're doing out there."
U of L will host the first and second rounds of the NCAA Tournament at the KFC Yum! Center. And the Cardinals will be playing in that bracket.
The event will be held March 24 and 26 at the Yum! Center.
"My goal is to get 10,000 into (the Yum! Center)," Walz said. "Right now, we're playing to get into the tournament and then playing for seeding. Each game we win puts us another notch up there for seeding."
Tickets for the first two rounds can be purchased through the www.NCAA.com website and at the Yum! Center ticket offices. All-session tickets for adults are $32 and $18 for youth/seniors and college students.

Marinas >Central Park
5th Ave & Central Park S, New York, NY | Directions 1002240.764303 -73.973005
Daily 6am-1am
Neighborhoods: Midtown, Lenox Hill, Upper East Side
This iconic park makes the urban jungle liveable. In Kramer vs. Kramer the Central Park Mall is the setting for the scene where Ted hands back his Son, Billy to his estranged wife Joanna.
Central Park is a no-brainer for seasonal fun, but most of my fellow New Yorkers haven't used it to cross-country ski, snowshoe, ride horses, play ice hockey or visit the zoo in winter. Consider The Conservatory Gardens at 105th Street for a quiet, contemplative visit, or head to Wollman Rink or Lasker Rink for ice skating. Sled at Pilgrim Hill. Make snow angels and grab food at Le Pain Quotidien or Loeb Boathouse. Warm up at The Met afterwards.
Great place to be in the Spring ans Summer – Did you know this was a man made park? This is a great place to be all seasons of the year but none more so than the first signs of spring. After a long brutal winter, getting out to enjoy the sun, smell the trees, and hear the bird chirps is one of the few places in nyc where you get your mind at ease. Try biking Central park on a bike and you will discover so much more!
Responding to the Dog-Friendly NY List – I just adore Central Park. I could go well beyond the limit of characters, but I'm writing in response to the "Dog-Friendly NY" list recently posted on CitySearch. The caption to CP is that owners can "show off" their dogs around w. 79th street and CPW in the afternoon. Do NOT do this. It is illegal to have your dog off leash anywhere in the park after 9am or before 9pm. The ticket/fine for violating this is worse than a parking ticket in Midtown!
Also, keep an eye out for dogs that are off leash that shouldn't be. It's the reason I only take my dog to the park for off-leash time around 6am and, even then, we go uptown toward the North Woods (where it is more isolated and quiet).
Great place to hang out in the summer – A great park that streches from 2-3 miles long. Lots of fun indoor and outdoor activities there. Museams are on both sides of the park. NYC only greatest nature other than Washington Square Park and Bryant Park. I ride my bike and scooter here often. Sounds of nature are great. Theres a lake, a castle, and near gracie mansion. I saw a frankie valleya nd the four seasons concert here. It was rocking awesome oldies. Large crowds. They have shows, concerts, quartets in rain or shine. Lots of entertainment. They have a zoo a pond and a piece of african wildlife seriously for real. It's like a mini forest. Very earthy and green, somewhat educational. Many school and camp trips come here. there are places to shop and eat or bring you own picnic!!!!!!!! It borders colombus circle to thesouth a busy area, near an upscale mall. People of all kinds, tours, celebrities, and people from all walks of life arrive here. Transportation is very easy.
good work out place – I love jogging at Central Park every Saturday. This park is large enough for me to jog for several hours in the morning. It is the place I work out the most in my life. I find Central Park to be a better place to work out than the gym that I used to go. First, Central Park is free. Second, it is not as crowded as the gym. Third, instead of smelling other people?s sweat in the gym, you can get some fresh air at the park. I also enjoy fishing at Central Park. I find it funny to fish in the middle of Manhattan but I am just too lazy to go somewhere far since I live a few blocks from Central Park. There are so many things that you can do and explore at Central Park. I strongly recommend everyone to visit Central Park but not too many as I don?t want it to be as crowded as the gym.
Join the Central Park Conservancy's Junior Committee for an Evening in the Garden! – Wednesday, June 25

Just steps from Fifth Avenue, enter Central Park through the famed Vanderbilt Gate at 105th Street for an enchanting and exclusive summer soiree!

Must be 21 years or older to attend.
Advance tickets are $50 each; tickets will also be available at the door for $75 each.
New York City's heart--and lungs – Contrary to what many may think, Central Park is not a sanctuary of untouched nature, but a meticulously engineered man-made park where even water currents are controlled by mechanical valves. The big rocks seen on the surface are pretty much its only untouched component. This only adds to the beauty of it, though. Central Park is a real work of art, and many of the views were actually conceptualized by artists and later materialized in one of the world's most famous parks. The sheer contrast between the skyscrapers and all that green is something that one cannot find easily. Make sure to do more than walk around and check the attractions, such as the zoo, the boathouse, and the Bethesda fountain--you will certainly recognize them from dozens of movies.
Relax and enjoy! – This park is absolutely magnificient with much to see! My wife & I just returned from vacationing for a week in NYC! You just walk and walk! Great place to walk, ride a bike, lay or sit down and read a book.
The most famous park in New York City provides 843 acres of greensward in the center of Manhattan. – By 1850, downtown New York's crowded conditions prompted the city commissioners and politicians to propose a public park to provide serenity for the residents of New York. Besides offering a glimpse of green amid the asphalt jungle and its towering skyscrapers, Central Park also provides numerous facilities and attractions, including the Central Park Carousel, SummerStage, the Delacorte Theater, Wollman Rink, the Loeb Boathouse and more. The full loop within Central Park covers a distance of 6.1 miles. If you walked all the pedestrian paths within the park, you would cover a total of 58 miles.
A sanctuary amidst the wild – Whether you need some relaxation or a bit of action, this is the only place in New York City that caters to every mood.
What a gem – Kudos to the planners of Manhattan for thinking of this truly amazing haven amid the cement caverns of the city. Please go, walk a bit and appreciate the size, if anything else, of this great park.
